Music — Poetry — Fiction 



Go sketch and paint the humblest flower 1854 



That lends its fragrance to the grove; Brown 



Go trace the feeblest star that gleams 

 From the cerulean vaults above. 



Exhaust thyself, vain-glorious man, 



On scenes and subjects fit for thee, 

 Nor dare presumptuously to scan 



The wondrous works of Eternity. 



The works of an Almighty hand 



None can depict — though all adore ! 

 Terrific — bold and beautiful. 



They breathe the sov'reignty of power. 



O God! it seems to me most strange 



That any man so mad should be 

 To doubt, to disbelieve Thy power 



When thus, Creation speaks to Thee.

 shock of the falling waters, and to see the vapor and rainbows.
